I removed the following comment as someone who has considerable knowledge of thoroughbred racing but who has never heard the '58 Kentucky Derby referred as claimed, nor have I found it in any of the important racing publications. I note the editor is a great fan of Silky Sullivan and created this article as a REDIRECT to Silky Sullivan, and I indeed saw this race and others, but the facts of his success in the Triple Crown speak for themselves.

REMOVED: (Tim Tam's deserved win is still referred to as Silky Sullivan's Kentucky Derby due to the huge publicity that arose from the California colt's entry.)
